I thought there was a Tech forum on DU but I can't find it
I have a GPRS wireless broadband service (not satellite) and wonder if I can use Vonage or one of the VoIP companies (suggestions welcome)

my broad band speeds are

Up=184 kb/s
Down=1318 kb/s

can I do it??

I'm so frustrated with my landline and the troubles I'm ready to tear my hair out.

3. Here..
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=242

But the upload speed is not good.. it'll slow you down if you use Vonage. At a minimum, you should try using 256k upload speed.

Don't you have Qwest in your area? have you had your line checked for DSL qualification?
